This venue is new for me, I have attended a previous meeting but have not joined the American Holistic Nursing Society, yet anyway. The first and only meeting I went to was very insightful in that it encompassed many professions such as architecture and psychology, etc. as well as nursing. We discussed the benefits of having a closed nursing station versus an open nurses station in hospitals/clinics. Nurses and patients are happier with closed nursing stations for several reasons, it encloses any extra noise such as talking and laughing to one area and nurses have their own area to concentrate on medication calculations, etc. At this first meeting there were several nurse practitioners who were just opening up clinics to treat patients, very exciting. The next meeting is Wednesday night 6-8pm at the College of Nursing rm 105.
